Changed. Is this a Taser Dart?

[Ant]

I found this on an abandon Military Base. I thought it might a Taser dart. I can see where a wire might have been attached at the threaded end.
What do you think?

I hope that that is not a taser dart...ouch!

Only the barb would go into a person, not the whold shaft.

[hollowpointred]

looks like one to me.

Tazer darts are normally made from small fishooks without the bend.

For sure not a TASER dart.


Actually, it looks like a stitch removal tool used by a seamstress.

Hi DigEmAll,

I’m familiar with what a seam ripper looks like and this isn’t one. I posted another picture, it shows where the wire on a taser dart might have been attached (arrow pointing to location). It might be something else though. I used yahoo image finder to see what came up and it shows a guy with something that looks similar to what I found sticking in his face, below his eye.

Well it certainly isn't a modern Tazer dart. I am very familiar with those and they are a lot smaller. They have an adapted fish hook for a barb that is attached to a small aluminum cylindrical slug. The hooks are approx. 3/8ths to a half inch long depending on the cartridge you use. The total length of the projectile is about an inch and a half.. Hope this helps Midnight guy

It is a goldfish harpoon
It looks like a end to a cleaning rod for cleaning a gun barrel but never seen a barbed point before.

My bet is a little tiny harpoon,probably used for catching small minnows..........sorry, couldn't help myself.

 

[Michelle]

what about a piece to a cleaning rod for a gun/rifle......

 

[Ant]

Na, I was a Rifleman/Grenadier when I was in the Army and putting a sharp object in the end of a firearm would be a bad. A scratch the walls of the barrel could change the trajectory of the round.

I’m leaning towards it being some kind of multi meter lead end, you know, the probe end. I found a common multi meter end near the same area.

Good guess Natf. I was thinking some sort of ignition/spark device as well.

 

[DEMON]

looks like add on to a flucke eletronic meter to me

Looks like part of an antenna for a portable radio.

Years ago, when I worked for Radio Shack, we sold CB antennas that screwed in like this for hand-held units and for magnetic mounts for your car. This could be just the inside, base part of an "over-mold" antenna.

I know exactly what that is. It's an aspiration syringe part like the dentist uses. That part is inside the barrel and is missing the ring for your thumb that screws onto the threaded part. The "harpoon" stabs into the rubber stop in the glass vial of anasthesia allowing you to push the liquid into the tissue or pull on it to see if you aspirate blood (in a vessel=bad) redirect and finish injecting.

I did find a few old vales of lidocane. One of my first jobs was as a Sterilization Technician, I've worked with the type of syringes your talking about and I don't remember that.

I'm not saying your wrong, I'll try looking up old syringes.

Thanks for the help, and everyone else's too.

Can you find visible verification to show? Like a drawing or photo?

OK, I was watching a movie this weekend called Just Friends. Toward the end of the movie this girl shoots this guy in the groin with a taser. Then it shows him ripping the wires out of the things then walking toward the camera. I paused and zoomed in and guess what? The two things sticking out of the front of his pants look like this thing. LOL Great Movie BY the way. I recomend it. It is very funny.
